Figure 3. Block Diagram
Detailed Description
The MAX192 uses a successive-approximation conver-
sion technique and input track/hold (T/H) circuitry to
convert an analog signal to a 10-bit digital output. A
flexible serial interface provides easy interface to
microprocessors. No external hold capacitors are
required. Figure 3 shows the block diagram for the
MAX192.
Pseudo-Differential Input
The sampling architecture of the ADC’s analog com-
parator is illustrated in the Equivalent Input Circuit
(Figure 4). In single-ended mode, IN+ is internally
switched to CH0–CH7 and IN- is switched to AGND. In
differential mode, IN+ and IN- are selected from pairs
of CH0/CH1, CH2/CH3, CH4/CH5, and CH6/CH7. Refer
to Tables 1 and 2 to configure the channels.
In differential mode, IN- and IN+ are internally switched
to either one of the analog inputs. This configuration is
pseudo-differential to the effect that only the signal at
IN+ is sampled. The return side (IN-) must remain sta-
ble within ±0.5LSB (±0.1LSB for best results) with
respect to AGND during a conversion. Accomplish this
by connecting a 0.1µF capacitor from AIN- (the select-
ed analog input, respectively) to AGND.
During the acquisition interval, the channel selected as
the positive input (IN+) charges capacitor C
HOLD
. The
acquisition interval spans three SCLK cycles and ends
on the falling SCLK edge after the last bit of the input
control word has been entered. At the end of the acqui-
sition interval, the T/H switch opens, retaining charge
on C
HOLD
as a sample of the signal at IN+.
The conversion interval begins with the input multiplex-
er switching C
HOLD
from the positive input (IN+) to the
negative input (IN-). In single-ended mode, IN- is
simply AGND. This unbalances node ZERO at the input
of the comparator. The capacitive DAC adjusts during
the remainder of the conversion cycle to restore its
node ZERO to 0V within the limits of its resolution. This
action is equivalent to transferring a charge of
16pF x (V
IN
+ - V
IN
-) from C
HOLD
to the binary-weighted
capacitive DAC, which in turn forms a digital represen-
tation of the analog input signal.
